Im looking at getting upgraded injectors for my r33 gts-t and it looks like ill need top feed ones and im going with id brand, either 720? Or 850s. Thing is i dont know much about fuel rails and injector installs. Ill get a shop to fit, but can someone explain a bit about whats needed, sizes and how it fits together? I hear id need short version injectors for rb25det etc...

And with a fuel rail, id buy the rail, but does that just bolt on generally, to the oem hoses and parts etc? Do i need to buy additional parts, etc?

Thanks

Go to scottys customs website and have a look. He has a conversion kit all you need is the short injectors!

All there all done for you. You could even email him or find him on Facebook and message him about it.

He's been a great help to me but because I want the stock look I'm going Nismo 740CC

I've been following your posts for ages now! I'm using your fuel pump guide next week :)

hhahahaa sweet man!

Yeah, hit up Scotty - he has all the parts and I've measured out all the spacers for him already so he knows exactly what to supply based on what application

And whats the deal with fuel pressure regulators? Why/when is this needed?

Usually not needed. You have two main reasons to need one.

1) You are living in the early 1990s and you cannot buy bigger injectors or better engine management. The only way to get more fuel into your engine is to bump up the pressure.

2) You are fitting an aftermarket fuel rail and cannot put your OEM regulator onto it. Ergo you have to buy a reg that will fit.

For most people the OEM reg is able to flow enough return fuel for quite large fuel pump upgrades without losing control of the fuel pressure. Once you get past that point THEN you have a really good reason to buy an aftermarket reg.

How much power do you need to support? Drop in a set of S15 injectors? Would be plenty for a hi-flow turbo.

If not just go Nismo 740cc or any other drop ins you can get your hands on.

Then no need for cop-attracting fuel rail, fancy hosing or aftermarket reg to over complicate things.

This is the reason I'm going 740s :)

      http://calfinn.com.au/product/1500kg-standard-trolley-jack-cj-2t-c/1500kg-standard-trolley-jack-cj-2t-c   I have this and fits under a S3 33 GTR with no issues. Purchased in 2009 and not one issue. It was $950 back then. Not cheap but something so important isn’t worth cheaping out on.

      Just trying to get my head around this. At 5psi of boost, you turn on your wmi pump, and then you're using a 3000cc injector, to allow flow upto the actual engine, where you have your 6x200cc injectors and a 500cc injector. If the above is correct, what advantage are you obtaining by having the 3000cc injector blocking flow, is this just incase a line breaks between that injector and the motor you can stop flow immediately? Or are the 6x200cc and 500cc less injectors and just spray nozzle?

      Intro/R33 owner

      Welcome! New member myself, but I had an R33 back in 2002. Best advice I could give, based on my experience: if you're running the factory turbo, be very conservative with boost. I made the mistake of just fiddling around with the boost controller and cranking the boost for fun, and the end result was my intake pipes popping off frequently from the constant deluge of oil that was being blown into the recirc by the stressed-out turbo, which itself was siphoning oil from the engine and farting it out both sides of its centre bearing (or something to that effect). If I could do it all again, I would have gotten a new turbo and had a tune dialled in professionally and then just left it alone! Funny you mention the metal shavings in the gearbox, as I had the same thing - the probe plug (magnetic drain plug, essentially) would come out caked with shavings. At least it was doing its job. Not sure if that's just sacrificial wear and part of the deal, or if my gearbox was shagged, but I wasn't abusing it. Enjoy the R33 - they're a dying breed, and if they weren't $35k+ on CarSales in Queensland, I might have picked up one of those again, instead of the 370GT I own now (though I'm loving the 370GT, that big 3.7L V6 just hits different).

      Howdy folks. I owned an R33 back in 2002, which was thoroughly beyond my capacity (financially speaking) to maintain/insure, so we parted ways in 2004. Fast forward 21 years (to literally yesterday, in fact) and I'm now the proud owner of a 2007 V36 370GT. I'm happily surprised by how much power the VQ37VHR makes, compared to the RB25DET, considering the latter is turbocharged. I had planned to add a turbo at some point but I'm on the fence about whether I'll even need it (though I do love the sudden onset of extra torque). Any other 370GT owners around the traps, I'd love to hear about your experiences with this car (good and bad).

      Perhaps the answer is... more jacks!* *proper jacks must be used.
